What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (71 Viewers)

[Dusten]

I hate waiting for parts. I just wanna install stuff. Why I cant I have high quality parts produced at light speed?

This is sarcasm.

I'm at week 6 of 6-12 for my bumper.
I got word my exhaust won't ship till early may.

 

[azngarage]

take the fat 80s up the chute

The original ETA on my wheels is 7 months lol. We'll see if they make it in time or not, should be June

A little refresh/baselining going on here.

Old and busted:

New hotness:

First time replacing a fan shroud, but simple enough job. I did it while grilling some chicken for dinner, and I was done before the chicken. Disconnect two hoses, two bolts on shroud, 4 nuts on fan clutch. If you're careful you can remove the fan while keeping pressure on the water pump pulley and then put a couple of bolts back on to keep it secure and keep tension on the belts.

I had read in a few places that you could replace the shroud w/o removing the battery box. That may be true, but I could see really messing up your radiator fins trying to work around the battery and box, so I ending up adding about 15 mins to the job to remove the battery and battery box. Much less stress that way.

on a scale of 1-10, how much were you clenching while going up that?

Don't forget your foam

Foam?

 

[Marco Lau]

Foam?

Foam strips between core support/radiator and radiator/fan shroud for a better seal

Just smoking @NLXTACYs piece pipe for a future boost gauge install.

Y'all might mistake me for a "fan-boy", but I am a stickers and patches whore.

@NLXTACY, thanks for the hook-up.

I might be wrong but there's an easier way to change the oil filter during an oil change.

 

[NLXTACY]

I'm a decade ahead of you then

Oil pump cover seal and crank seal. Picked up a new crank bolt.
